might be if iranian oil returns to the market where we see 1 to 1.5 million barrels off the market and opec is quite pleased at that to keep prices high. >>> hey, george, is gold even though i guessed very incorrectly on gold, i will say it again, i was horribly wrong, is gold a screaming buy because of all the selling ahead of the fiscal cliff or higher capital gains reached right now? do you think it's an artificial dip? >> i think it is more than an artificial dip. i think you had smart to the market selling by december 31st you're going to have to pay taxes and whether you have taken your profit or not taken your profit. the second thing is of course evening out from the funds for year end and the third thing is of course gold did not look at incompetent flags upcoming in the last four weeks gold has been looking at the possible recession because if we're going to have less spending and higher taxes and a cap on the economy, then of course you don't need gold to preserve purchasing power so the gold managers have been pairing down gold and looking at other staassets. they've been lookin

also what's going to happen with the fed meeting and an opec meeting on wednesday. back to you. >> sharon, thank you so much for that. bob pisani is here at post 9. i'm sure you're going to talk about market action as it relates to what the speaker said a few moments ago. >> did you watch john boehner the speaker of the house? normally coolool and collected. looking a littles by frustrated. two-sentence answers. a little unusual for the speaker of the house and sort of very brusque and basically walked off on the press conference very quickly. good reason to be frustrated. let me give you some of the highlights of what a lot of people are talking about here. forget everything. don't go over the fiscal cliff but pass a simple tax bill. what would it entail? expend the tax cuts to those making under $250,000. increase taxes on dividends and capital gains to 23.6%. number three, know estate tax, payroll tax cut, unemployment benefits extension. basically strip everything out. no delay in sequestration. does this look like it would satisfy wall street? i don't think so.

but we're also waiting to see what happens in vienna with the opec meeting. in addition to the fed that comes out tomorrow. the expectation is, that opec will leave their current quota unchanged, around 30 million barrels per day. the actual production, around 31 million barrels a day. there may not be any change to that. the key will be what happens in terms of the election of a new secretary-general and saudi arabia in the running for that as well. back to you. >> thanks very much, sharon epperson. i did want to look at shares of largest for-profit hospital in the country. a secondary offering this morning. hga finds itself in the of so many movements of the capital structure, reflective of the 250i78s. don't forget, they borrow at incredibly low rates not long ago, $1 billion, to pay a special dividend. you want to pay a special dividend prior to any tax increase on dividends as well. capital gains figuring into that debate, let's call it at this point that we've been detailing down in d.c. with our "mission critical" coverage. this morning, two of the own

you have non-opec demand growing, global demand slowing, it's not snowing, and down is where we're going. the next big data point is probably the iaea report in february. and if that implicates more progress toward an iranian bomb, there's significant risk to look to the upside. in the meantime, you have a lot of other issues beyond the fiscal cliff. debt ceiling issues, if not resolved in the negotiation looming. and relatively long stocks here in the u.s. perhaps the most interesting part, becky, is to look at the convergence between light and heavy grades here in north america. we have a lot of light oil. and we're actually potentially short of heavy oil. so seeing convergence within that downward trend means there could be a bid for heavier. >> you would guess that would certainly hurt demand. >> sure. offsetting weakness in the dollar would lift the crude price based on historical trends, of course. yeah, it would be a significant blow, and when we're looking at 370 plus barrels of commercial inventories, folks are going to freak out. at the end of the year is a de-stocking time. cl

. >> opec and the fed, hey, u.s. production up. let's go to sharon epperson at the nymex. >> oil has really been on the move since the open a few minutes ago. not so much opec, which still packed with the current quota around 30 million barrels per day, it is producing more than that. but we are hearing, of course, from opec itself that saudi arabia has reduced its production in november to the lowest level in a year. so that seems to be a way that they will adhere closer to the current quota. we're also looking at the latest report from the international energy agency which may have more of an impact where oil prices are going in this session. they're looking for slightly demand in 2013. and they're pointing to china for the reason. we're anticipating we'll get the report from the energy department at 10:30 a.m. on oil supplies. the expectation is for a slight decline in food supplies. but we did see a major build in the industry report, if that is confirmed we could see these gains short-lived. back to you. >> all right. thank yo

opec's 2013 target is around $100. i think we'll move up into the mid-90s and probably press through that $100. one of the burdens we have is we do have an abundance of supply in the u.s. the u.s. won't export any crude oil, but i think the possibility of us starting to consume more, would drive and help support those higher prices. >> when you put on those longs, i'm wondering, because this week is a holiday shortened week. congress is coming back on the 27th. is this a trade for 2013? >> yeah, it is more of a trade for 2013. i wiould start to look at fartherer out contracts, to like december 2013, and play the entire year's action, just by being long that one contract. but i would strongly wait until after the beginning of the year, because of the weaker volume, the lack of participants. and i think that the price is really going to shop around. >> nat gas prices taking a step back. what do you see in the immediate future and what is the main catalyst here? the weather seems to be sort of calm. >> yeah. that's the is
